at his widowed sisters Mrs. s. A. Sizemore, in
this city, having retired to bed to WOO the
"drowsy God" was suddenly awakened from
his quiet and virtuous slumbers by loud
knocking at the front door of the house.
Upon inquiring who was there, he was in
formed that 1t was couple that wanted to
get married. AS the worthy Squire always
deeply sympathizes with yonng folks that
want TO get married, he hurried on his clothes
struck light and invited the candidate, in,
who turned out TO be Mr.. NJ. l.. Boone and
Miss Ella AlsbrOoks, both OF this county
into the parlor, where he proceeded to per-
form the ceremony with neatness and dis
patch and the happy couple went on their
way rejoicing. They were married so quick
that the most of the boarders were never
awakened at all by the hubub. Munf was
born and raised in sight of Erin, and his
amiable bride is one of the Houston County Is
fai"est daughters, her father being Mr.. l. A..
Alsbrooks, one of the most respectable and
highly esteemed citizens of the county. And

The picnic on Thursday in spite of the rain
was quite success. The Sunday school
scholars rendezvous at the M. L. Church
South from which place, accompanied by the
Brass Band they repaired In procession TO the
grove near Grahams Spring. AT the head OF
the pro cession was bourne a beautiful and
tasteful banner In scarlet, gold and blue, bor-
dered with rich gilt fringe, and bearing the
inscription: "Erin Sunday School," when
the Sunday school reached point in the
street nearly opposite the couri house, they
halted long enough togive Mr. e. +. Chllison,
photographer, time enough TO take negative
impression for the purpose OF making pic
ture OF the procession. 1t rained pretty
smart shower at about 10 o'clock a. M, and
again about noon, but the crowd took refuge
In q large church pear by, and were thus
enabled to bid defiance to the storm. Every
body who were present report having nice
time under the circumstances, and the chill
dren especially seem to have enjoyed the oc-
casion TO the utmost, and came away well
satisfied.

officiatine, Mr.. Joseph 2. Shamwell to Miss
Anna, tn next to the youngest daughter OF
the late j. l.. Mcmillan, Esq. Both Of these

beautiful, intelligent and amiable BRIDE and
should not forget the language of the past in
the old song.
Take her, fair and lovely flower,
And next thy heart the bright gem wear,
And may she ne'er forget the hour
She placed her young hopes blushing there.
Take her and when, in after years,
The storms of life bow loud and chill,
Be thine the hand To dry her tears,
And thine the voice to comfort still.
We would be glad If some one would fur
nish us with a copy of the above song We
cannot recall the remaining stanzas. and the
verses are too full of genuine poetry to be suf-
fered to pass into oblivion. We would like to
publish 1t entire,
